If you're sure there are "liek 100000 topics on this already", then why didn't you search??

Anyway -- it's essentially a stiff peice of delrin (plastic) or in some cases I suppose metal or various other materials -- my RB ones were delrin.

No, you do not want to be swapping the dtss eliminator in and out unless you enjoy plucking your fingernails out with tweezers. Okay, so it's not that bad, but yes, it is a permanent process -- not something that you want to just swap on the weekends. I think if you do a search, you'll probably see why.

Price? Check http://www.racingbeat.com and http://www.mazdatrix.com or search and you'll find several other manufacturers.

it's pretty much impossible to find brand new DTSS bushings anyway, and they don't work properly if they are old and have too much compliance.

It was a great concept back in the day, but unless you want to go to Mazda and spend like $70,000,000,000 (approx.) on new bushings, go with the locks.
